Why hasn't Charlo fought Tszyu yet? Why is he ducking Tim?

    Because no one will pay for a Charlo fight. Bad enough that the Thurman fight will lose money....who the hell would pay for it?.....
    either Charlo is what used to be called "box office poison".

    It's all about the Benjamins.

    That’s just “he said, she said” stuff mate.

    Either way, it doesn’t address the other points I made when you said that Tszyu has done what Charlo did. He hasn’t.

    He took a modest guaranteed purse I think.

    Those deals can be complicated and vary fight to fight.

    It seems from what I read fighters get a piece of the net after everyone else has taken their share. Still would have been a good payday for just prancing around and not doing much.

    Charlo avoided fighting Tim multiple times as his mandatory, wasting Tszyu's time. That is the fault of the sanctioning bodies, who are greedy and corrupt. What I dislike most though, is Charlo saying Tim isn't good enough and putting the man down at every opportunity- blatant untruths.

    Your post is the closest thing to being the truth. He unified, had the scare against Castano, and then said show me the money.

    lol you Tim Tszyu fanboys need to stop with this ****.

    Jermell did not duck Tim Tszyu, he was going to fight Tszyu but then a better offer came along and he took it. The same thing that is happening with Tszyu not fighting Lubin.

    Refer to my posts on this matter in this thread.

    It is not even remotely the same situation. Lubin is not mandatory and Lubin has not been ducked for two years.

    Tsyzu will fight anybody they put up. Charlo won’t. And he should have been stripped of his belts a long time ago.

    You're kidding yourself if you think Charlo had a hand injury. Not once but twice. I don't think so mate. They don't even take that long to heal. 2 months max, and you're good. Broken bones or not.

    He wasn't going to fight Tim at all. We still haven't heard a thing from him after his loss to Canelo. He's had ample time to come out and say he will. He fled the division like a thief in the night. Did The Italian Job. Got an almighty steal then vanished.

    Coward.

    Charlo isn't scared of Tszyu. What's so terrifying about Tszyu? Seriously, he's not impressive. Strong fighter, nothing more.

    He's not fighting his mandatory. That's a duck. Sitting on belts for nearly 2 years now. You need to come back to reality.

    let me repeat again Jermell did not duck Tszyu a better offer came up so he took it.

    If the Canelo fight didnt come up he would of fought him. Yes correct Jermell did not fight Tszyu buts thats because he got offered the Canelo fight not because he was ducking and scared to fight him. Why would he be scared to fight him if they had a date and venue lined up already. Its not like Jermell turned down the bout to fight some random for peanuts, he fought Canelo the face of boxing and one of the top P4P fighters. If he fought the former then yes that would be a straight duck.

    He is scared he faked the hand injury originally to get out of fighting Tszyu then he took the Canelo fight and fought like a total coward
